About this event
‘Exceptional vocals & great musicianship’
The Evening Standard
‘Stunning’
The Echo
This highly acclaimed live and symphonic production is on it way to the Cornwall Playhouse with a spectacular celebration of the timeless songs that made The Carpenters legends of popular music.
Experience all their unforgettable hits, including Close To You, Top of the World, We’ve Only Just Begun, Rainy Days & Mondays, and Goodbye to Love, brought to life with the outstanding vocals of Claire Furley and the lush musical arrangements from a stunning orchestral string section.
In a 1970s decade dominated by punk, prog rock and heavy metal, The Carpenters forged their own path, selling over 100 million records and defining a softer sound that endures today.
Nearly fifty years on, their beautifully crafted melodies continue to enchant audiences everywhere.
Running time: approximately 2 hours and 5 minutes including a 20-minute interval
